"See Prince Siva of xuanzhenla!"
"Xuan, Prince Siva of Zhenla has an audience --!"
With the harmony of the little noble son and the bodyguard at the door of the xuanzheng hall, all the officials in the court reacted.
I was surprised.
Is Prince Zhenla here?
And the prince came?
Does the emperor mean to fight?
In the confusion of the crowd, a handsome young man in Cuili color and strange clothes inlaid with Phnom Penh slowly entered the xuanzheng hall. Behind him, two white bearded elders followed, holding a yellow pear wooden tray in both hands and tightly covered by red cloth. No one knew what was covered in it.
But from the high part, people can vaguely feel the uniqueness of this thing.
As soon as Prince Zhenla and the two entered the xuanzheng hall, he respectfully placed his right hand on his chest and said, "Prince Xiwa of Zhenla, bring his envoys to meet the emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"
Li Shimin waved his big sleeve: "flat!"
Talking room.
Siva then raised his head, took a tray from an old man behind him and said, "this is the National Certificate my father wrote to his Majesty the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. I hope his majesty will have a look!"
Then, the little noble son went down to the palace, checked a letter, and carefully presented it in front of Li Shimin.
This is the second letter from King Zhenla to him.
Yesterday, he received a letter from the envoy, but when he returned to the palace, he learned that Prince Zhenla had come. It seems that Zhenla has really come to a dead end. Otherwise, he will not send envoys frequently this time, and even let Prince Zhenla come in person!
You know, Prince Zhenla is equivalent to the prince. It's conceivable that the prince can come in person.
Sure enough.
After Li Shimin opened the National Certificate, the content on it has changed from the previous request to a plea!
Li Shimin took a sigh of relief and asked with a unchanged face, "I already know what happened this time, but you also know the current situation of Datang. Therefore, I have to think about it carefully before I can recover with you."
Hearing the speech, Siva bowed and said: "Thank you for your kindness and kindness. I came here with the intention of my father. My father said that as long as his majesty sent troops, I will try my best to gather enough military supplies for Datang. Moreover, in the past business, minus 30% of the profits, in the future, I am willing to sign a permanent vassal agreement with Datang and pay tribute every year!"
Wen Yan.
Everyone in the court was shocked.
Permanent vassal state?
All the business in the past minus 30% of the profit to Datang?
Poisonous salt was originally given to Datang for free. In exchange, Datang only needs a cart of poisonous salt to give them ten kilograms of salt. But in addition, there are other things, such as seafood, spices, fruits and so on.
Since the establishment of business exchange with Zhenla, many people in Korea and China have participated in it, and even some people have made a lot of plutonium. Although people were worried before, this business only affects the present and will recover one day.
It's just different now.
Once the emperor promised to help Zhenla, and according to the emperor's current intention, it seems that he has already wanted to help Zhenla. Once he helps Zhenla send troops, then
Their interests will be maximized!
Li Shimin was silent at this time.
Slowly swept the faces of all the ministers in the court, and then slowly said, "I know what you said, but you also know the current situation. If I send troops blindly, what consequences will be caused, so I will give you an answer in three days!"
While talking, Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "send a message. The soldiers of the states in Jiannan Road, Lingnan Road, are ready!"
"Retreat!"
In Li Shimin's indifferent voice.
They had to suppress their doubts and send Li Shimin away.
After the crowd left, Siva took a look at the direction of Li Shimin's departure, then winked with the two people behind him, hurriedly left the xuanzheng hall and went to Honglu temple.
In addition to this, there is another reason why he came to Datang this time.
That is to visit Zhang Feng!
When I was in Zhenla, I heard that Zhang Feng seems to have opened an academy in Datang to attract talents from all over the world. The purpose of this visit is to find Zhang Feng.
As for this matter.
He is confident that as long as the Tang emperor is not a fool, he will send troops.
And he's already full of sincerity. He doesn't believe it. Will people in Datang agree?
Once out of the xuanzheng hall.
Xiwa told the two people behind him, "go back to Honglu temple first and I'll go out."
"One of the older men asked anxiously," prince, you... It's not too late to go when there is a definite answer to this matter. After all, this is a big thing! "
Siva was unmoved, just motioned with his eyes to the ministers who had just left the xuanzheng hall and said, "look at their faces and think about what his Majesty the Tang Emperor just said, you will understand!"
While talking, Siva hurried with the carriage to pick up the ministers, and the sedan chair disappeared in the sight of the two envoys.
